Synopsis of Nollywood Hustler.
Emem Isong and Uche Jombo collaborate to shoot a new comedy titled ‘Nollywood Hustler’.
Elvis (Charles Inojie) and Lucky (Bishop) are two no-good-out-of-work hustlers who want to shoot a film. They enlist the help of Prince Adolphus Akabogwu (Ejike Asiegbu) to sponsor it and the pepper soup joint assistant Scholarstica (Uche Jombo) to feature. But how do they get the A-List actors, Monalisa Chinda and Ramsey Nouah (acting as themselves) to act without paying their exorbitant fee? They then come up with a brilliant plan that leads to severe consequences for the pair. ‘Nollywood Hustler’ is a satire on the film making process in Nigeria, that will leave you laughing from start to finish.
Produced by Emem Isong & Uche Jombo.
Directed by Moses Inwang
Written by Bola Aduwo & Uduak Isong Oguamanam.
It has Uche Jombo as the Executive Producer and features several stars in cameo appearances.

ReplyDeleteCant wait to watch it...............but i hope its not the "English" version of jenifa o!
ReplyDeleteThis is a copy of a film done in hollywood, can't remember the name of it but it was pretty funny actually...I know there is nothing truly original these days...but it would be nice to see...
ReplyDeleteThe hollywood movie they're copying is BOWFINGER with Eddie Murphy and Steve Martin. Come one Nollywood, have any original ideas?
ReplyDeleteAnd you guys have the nerve to ask the public not to buy bootleg movies while you're bootlegging your way out of hollywood and bollywood..shame shame shame on Nollywood. You copy people movies, use their music without paying a fee, shoot movies on foreign ground incognito, avoiding taxes, and you want to be taking seriously? Pay for decent scripts concentrate on quality instead of abominable quantities that will take you nowhere but the african diaspora and african.
I just wish the movie had been alot better than it turned out to be.
